What do you mean by "your statues"?

I am going to give you an upvote, because this means something to you.

With that being said, I do not care and you should not either. I have lived in Dallas for 22 years, I just found out we had a Robert Lee statue.

How we treat each other moving forward is far more important than monuments to our sins of the past. The media and activist are creating the wrong conversations for their benefit, not the people.

Or maybe they are just works of art that look awesome.

Maybe stop destroying historical monuments.

Pro-monument people would probably gladly let you sledgehammer every statue and rename every town, street, and school if it'd actually make a difference. But it won't affect the appalling statistics of high school dropout rate, fatherless households, or violent crime in the black community. So why bother.


It is a red herring that distract that subset of the populace who are pre-disposed to support the effort. It rallies the troops and coalesces them around an issue.

In short, it is a huge "get out the vote" initiative for the Democrats.

Nothing more.

A grandstanding podcast where he just brags about how racist he isn't. Dude thinks he's fricking Ghandi.
